Style Studio : Fashion Designer is one of those apps that is educational but not in the sense that your 4th grade teacher might appreciate. This app allows your child to “dress” a character and even design her own clothes. I thought it was pretty cool to watch her design her own jeans in the video after touching the app for only about 20 minutes. We didn’t have an appropriate friend nearby to test out the feature where you can dress a friend, but that looks like something they will have tons of fun with. Is it entertaining? Yes. Girls love this sort of thing — at least my daughter and her friends do.

This is one of the first apps I can think that they will actually collaborate together on. That is pretty neat!

I give it a 5 for attention, 3 for learning and a 5 for fun. That is a pretty fun and entertaining 13 with some non-traditional learning built in. Remember parents — your kids need to learn more than letters and numbers right? Fashion is important to their image and self esteem.
